حَدَّثَنَا سُلَيْمَانُ بْنُ حَرْبٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَمُسَدَّدٌ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏الْمَعْنَى قَالَا:‏‏‏‏ حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادُ بْنُ زَيْدٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ عَاصِمٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ زِرٍّ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ قُلْتُ لِأُبَيِّ بْنِ كَعْبٍ أَخْبِرْنِي عَنْ لَيْلَةِ الْقَدْرِ يَا أَبَا الْمُنْذِرِ فَإِنَّ صَاحِبَنَا سُئِلَ عَنْهَا، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَقَالَ:‏‏‏‏ مَنْ يَقُمْ الْحَوْلَ يُصِبْهَا، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَقَالَ:‏‏‏‏ رَحِمَ اللَّهُ أَبَا عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَاللَّهِ لَقَدْ عَلِمَ أَنَّهَا فِي رَمَضَانَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏زَادَ مُسَدَّدٌ:‏‏‏‏ وَلَكِنْ كَرِهَ أَنْ يَتَّكِلُوا، ‏‏‏‏‏‏أَوْ أَحَبَّ أَنْ لَا يَتَّكِلُوا، ‏‏‏‏‏‏ثُمَّ اتَّفَقَا، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَاللَّهِ إِنَّهَا لَفِي رَمَضَانَ لَيْلَةَ سَبْعٍ وَعِشْرِينَ لَا يَسْتَثْنِي، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قُلْتُ:‏‏‏‏ يَا أَبَا الْمُنْذِرِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏أَنَّى عَلِمْتَ ذَلِكَ ؟ قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ بِالْآيَةِ الَّتِي أَخْبَرَنَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قُلْتُ لِزِرٍّ:‏‏‏‏ مَا الْآيَةُ ؟ قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ تُصْبِحُ الشَّمْسُ صَبِيحَةَ تِلْكَ اللَّيْلَةِ مِثْلَ الطَّسْتِ لَيْسَ لَهَا شُعَاعٌ حَتَّى تَرْتَفِعَ.

I said to Ubayy bin Kab رضی اللہ عنہ : Tell me about lailat al-qard, O Abu al-Mundhir, for our companion (Ibn Masud رضی اللہ عنہ) was questioned about it, and he said: Anyone who gets up for prayer every night all the year round will hit upon it (i.e. lailat al-qadr). He replied: May Allah have mercy on Abu Abdur-Rahman. By Allah, he knew that it was in Ramadan, (Musaddad's version goes) bu he disliked that the people should content themselves (with that night alone) ; or he liked that the people should not content themselves (with the night alone). According to the agreed version: By Allah, it is the twenty-seventh night of Ramadan, without any reservation. I said: How did you know that, Abu al-Mundhir ? He replied: By the indication (or sign) of which the Messenger of Allah صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم informed us. I asked Zirr: What is the sign ? He replied: The sun rises like a vessel of water in the morning following that night ; it has no ray until it rises high up.
